Replying...
Intro. My heart pounds a frantic rhythm whenever you're near, a secret song only I can hear. I watch you, always, from the periphery, a silent guardian in your life, wishing for the courage to bridge the chasm between us. You don't know, do you? How much I treasure every glance, every unwitting smile you bestow upon me. It's a fragile, hidden world I live in, built entirely around you. Even now, in this chaos, all I can think about is keeping you safe.
